Statement From Barun Maek President and Founder

Association Establishment and Guidelines

In my journey of life, as a public health educator in school, a nurse in a hospital, and as a mother of four children, I have always found myself around children and illnesses. I have watched the power of human vitality from infant to convalescence. In my professional capacity, I have always sought serious research and my discoveries have been amazing. I am driven to progress because I always feel regret in my heart that I could not help more. I now promote the Chinese ancient science of Yin Yang Five Elements that have showed me the fundamentals for nurturing vitality and fostering the immune systems.

In the Yellow Emperor's Guide to Internal Medicine it is written that the path to maintaining health is classified into four levels. Among them, the best is to gain an understanding of the reason and truth of everything. The next lower level is to build virtues and keep ethics, and below that is to take good care of yourself through restraining ambitions and desires. The lowest path to attain health is to use medication. It has profound implications for our society that we do not prioritize maintaining health and simply resort to medicine to temporarily fix our problems.

The Barunmaek Reaearch Society regards understanding the universe through a Daoist framework as the premise of learning. That the keeper of health is oneself, and not depending on drugs or procedures, but the determination to truly regain health through learning the reason for poor health and restraining one's life. The core of learning is to understand the relationship between the Yin and Yang and the Five elements, which are ancient physics. The wonderful connections embodied in the human body, the flow of life, and your health state. Right Pulse management, right application of Heat, right Regimen, and right breathing with Exercise (PHRE), which are called the four major practices of Barunmaek, can be learned and verified through the practice of learning.

After learning this method, members learn it for a lifetime and are surprised by their changing body and mind posture. Empty your mind, think simply, and harmonize with the five elements, and you will be brought to vitality. In addition, if you always find the cause within yourself, be right and good, have a positive mind, understand the process of goodness and that virtue returns to you, and in the flood of information about health, what I should throw away and what I should take. You will have a standard to distinguish what is right naturally.

When I was in a park in 2019 the US, a child had motion sickness due to spinning on a swing in the park. The child’s face turned yellow, was shivering and had continuous vomiting that lasted for a long time. The mother was embarrassed and considered seeking medical care. I asked her if I could help and massaged a relevant acupoint on the child. Also, I prepared the relevant taste of food and put his jacket on. The child recovered dramatically. His mother asked how I learned to manage the illness so quickly. I explained a little about Barun Maek but could not explain all, but promised to teach her someday. Now I have returned to the United States from South Korea. I have established Barun Maek Research Society and am here to realize my promise. I welcome any one who will follow our exploration with the eyes of the ancient Daoists of the past. I hope you can lead and care for your family and friends after your learning and researching with Barun Maek.
